Many areas in New Zealand receive poor TV signal. With Freeview digital satellite reception however it is perfect where ever you live. Satellite reception is perfect anywhere in NZ, even in current "poor signal" areas. Digital satellite TV also offers different channels with more becoming available all the time.

While the signal from your dish can feed into our FTA satellite receivers and then into your SKY decoder [using a short coax lead with an 'F' connector on each end], SKY doesn't like anything connected to their system, and it can cause you problems with your reception. So to keep SKY happy and to save reception headaches, you might need to buy a second dish along with a FTA receiver. See our What to Buy page for more details or send us an email below.

Then all you need is one of our free-to-air satellite receivers. Look at our range and choose which one suits you. If your dish is in working order you can just plug the receiver in yourself. Email us below if you have any questions.

Our What to Buy page will explain what is needed for a standard install. You can then select the products or a complete package from our range and when it arrives you can choose between asking a local TV aerial installer to do the job or you can do it yourself. See our DIY page for details on how to do it yourself.
